Verify before acting: operational disruption changes quickly. Always confirm the current position with the original source or your operator before making transport or booking decisions.

Disruption items come only from primary or official notices — port, terminal and airport operators, carriers, border authorities, police and local authorities, government bodies and verified operator updates. Rumours and unverified social posts are never used.
